Hi Folks, I am considering purchasing an external hard drive for my pc in order to back up everything just in case of pc failure. I am amazed to find that you can now get up to a 500 GB drive for just over £70. I have even found one for under thirty pounds but I have never heard of the manufacturer, so will not be taking a chance on that one. I want one which is easy to use, external rather than internal, and runs from a normal USB connection. Is there anything else I should particularly look for and are there any manufacturers people have had good experiences with. Freecom seem to get good reviews. any thoughts would be appreciated.
